2024 Ram 2500 Check Engine Light Codes

In Denver, drivers trust Larry H. Miller Chrysler Dodge Ram FIAT Denver for accurate interpretation of check engine light codes on the 2024 Ram 2500. Common codes include P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim lean), and P0135 (oxygen sensor heater circuit). Left unchecked, P0420 can lead to higher emissions and costly catalytic converter replacement; early diagnosis often saves hundreds by repairing upstream sensors or exhaust leaks. Misfire codes like P0300 degrade performance and fuel economy and can cause engine damage if you continue driving; timely repair prevents expensive internal repairs. Lean condition codes reduce power and accelerate engine wear; resolving vacuum leaks or fuel system faults preserves long-term reliability. We combine local convenience in Denver with factory-level diagnostics, OEM parts, and certified technicians who explain both immediate costs and lifecycle savings. Our service advisors outline repair options, warranty coverage, and financing so you can make informed decisions—check availability and current offers through our service specials or schedule service online.
